Following my last post about the poetry collections Valencia Rouzaud published editions The Two Sicilies I received with pleasure a letter from the poet that I reproduce below. Another big thank you to him for this nice attention to which I reply in this post.
Note that the letter will be published in Issue 50 of dieresis , journal of poetry and literature.
" Dear Aline,
A fool who would fate finally write literature. Besides making his sorrows talent Verlaine has succeeded marvelously. Ah! A life in the life of a living artist, sure you can have unconventional tastes and a universal vision. Like a smile on a face talent is a supplement. Hide the beautiful and the ugly remains only fashion.
More than an umbrella, my friends. "
Valencia
"Dear Valencia
From your friendship shaped umbrella, I can only rejoice. I love this idea. And if a fool who would be born out of literature, so I hope that these troubles are the talents and manifest themselves. Looks like the poor Lelian, also curse him, "the best morals in this world where the wildest are the wisest of all is still time to forget." So please accept my back all green sympathy. "
(Verlaine's quote is taken from "The each other )
